Some one uka what a *r*u*» abuuld do whorv throuch death, remoral and chaus* of buatueaa the memtxsnhlp comae to be composed larscly of YlUa*» people oho bare little lotereat lo farming My augsretlou wonkl be to work eoch a graugeeomewbat along the Uoea of a village Improvement society, says George M. Whittaker In the New England Farmer. Study shade trees and bow to car* for them. Work for a gfntlmeut favorable to the preservation of the birds. Interest the members In the care of schoolhoose grounds, cemetery, the common and other public ground*. Wake up a seal in attractive ground* and lu a general spirit of civic neatness about the premises of membeta. Try -to make your town more beautiful. Boct work la cloaely allied ■ to agriculture, using the word in Ita broader sense. Plenty of amusement for the young people la all right but remember that the grange baa a serious aide and do not overlook Ita educational work. If the members are not Interested In cultivating broad fields, do what you can for tbe most successful cultivation of tbe roadside tree, tbe shrubbery about tbe village homes, tbe grass Of the lawns. In this way you are carrying out grange principles. But I Insist that In the original Initiation of members tbe grange should be kept a farmers’ organization, and I am ^pleased at the number of Indorsements of my (Kisltlon that are coming to me all of the time. One critic of my views argued that every one should be admitted to the grange because this would make It broader. I admit that such a result might follow such a course. Doubtless many medical associations would be broader with a few ministers. It might broaden the lawyers to cross swords In debate with physician members of bar association*. Bat this Increased breadth worfld be secured at the expense of losses In other directions. A medical body could not act as. vigorously for proper vaccination laws if half of Its members were ministers. The members of a lawyers' dub should be lawyers. By parity of rea K g a fanners' association should be osed of farmer*. H a grange officer not long since, n reply to my Inquiry about his grange be said In substance. ■'We have more members than ever before In our history, but we are at tbe name time weak for any aggressive agricultural work because many of our members bare no Intere. t In agriculture, and. as tbe community understands this, when we make any <!etuand In tbe name of agriculture’ It does not receive tbe ednalderation It would if tbe members really represented the wishes of the rank and file of the fanners of that locality." a Modern Grange Hall. Dracut (Maas.) grange ha* a very convenient and modern g-nng.> hal^ It is a fwo and a half story building with
